In the newest episode of Oracle Academy Tech Chat podcast season three, host Tyra Crockett Peirce, Oracle Academy Senior Manager, North America, chats with Dr. Gisella Bassani, Associate Professor, University of Colorado Denver. As an industry expert, Dr. Bassani spends time with Tyra discussing teaching and learning of database within Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), including the benefits of a cloud architecture as well as lessons that can assist students in professional interviews upon graduating.
Additionally, Dr. Bassani discusses how OCI can be utilized to advance student learning of specific subjects, and how it can help them build career-ready skills with relevant hands-on experience. She also touches on how being aware of pitfalls with any cloud provider can help students navigate various challenges successfully.
This episode closes with Dr. Bassani giving a gentle reminder to faculty and students, that learning curves look different from person to person. Working with database and cloud products can be akin to learning a new language and should be treated as such, with a bit of grace. With enough persistence, anyone can gather the skills to master their practice.
